It includes material required to be furnished to the pilot by EASA CS 27 and Part 21. It also contains supplementary data supplied by the helicopter manufacturer. This manual is intended to give the pilot the best possible information and to help him find the best answer to most operational situation. However, it cannot replace pilot’s appreciation of each particular situation. Pilot must maintain adequate ground and flight instruction, and good proficiency in the type of helicopter. To achieve the required level of safety, the helicopter pilot-in-command must be familiar with this manual’s content, with other safety-related available information, and with all the regulation covering aircraft operation that are relevant in the country of operation. He is responsible for determining that the helicopter is safe for flight, and for operating it in respect to this manual and above information. The helicopter’s owner is responsible for maintaining the aircraft in approved airworthy condition and for maintaining this manual in a current status in accordance with the list of current pages.

At sea level in standard conditions, FLO limit corresponds to an engine power of 134 kW (180 hp). − Their relative positions vary with engine inlet air temperature and altitude, − Both limits should not to be exceeded at any time, − The indicator (pointer and digits) displays power delivered by the engine in terms of margin to the first of these limits. Note 1 : The red radial PWR mark shows that the limit could be exceeded if the pilot requires too much power. He should control the flight not to exceed it. Note 2 : The red FLO arc warns the pilot that the limit cannot mechanically be exceeded in order to help him anticipate.

Introduction The following emergency procedures describe the actions the pilot must take, relative to the various possible failures that can occur. However, depending on the many variable external environments, such as the type of terrain flown over, the pilot may have to adapt to the situation according to his experience. To help the pilot in his decision process, three recommendations are used : • LAND IMMEDIATELY • LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE Emergency conditions are urgent and require landing at the nearest landing site at which a safe landing can be made. • CONTINUE FLIGHT Continue flight as planned. Repair at the destination according to maintenance manual. Note: Immediate action that the pilot shall take, or main parameters are written in bold characters. Hélicoptères Guimbal SECTION 3 CABRI G2 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES 3-2 EASA Approved Original issue Power failures General Engine failure can be detected by : • Yaw acceleration, nose to the right, • Engine noise level decreases, • Tachometer needles desynchronization on the EPM (engine decreases) • OIL P warning on the EPM and OIL P red light coming ON. • Plasma beeper, • Rotor speed decreasing and “low NR” horn. Caution : A slow decay in engine power, caused by carburetor icing or air filter clogging, is compensated by the governor and can be overlooked by the pilot. The MLI indication will not change while in PWR mode, but will rapidly shift to FLO mode, then increase to 100%. Primary transmission failure can be detected by : • High yaw rate, nose to the right, • Engine noise level increases, • Tachometer needles desynchronization on the EPM (engine increases). Eventual engine overspeed only if the governor is OFF • Rotor speed decreasing and “low NR” horn. In case of a primary transmission failure, apply following power failure actions. Roll off the twist grip as soon as possible. Warning : Safe landing may not be possible if the power failure occurs within the “unsafe” zone of the H/V diagram (refer to section 5). Operation inside this zone should be avoided.
